Hello -
This is one of a couple of questions I have for the day. My 800s section is
extremely small, partly because the person who organized the libary created a
separate section for the story collection.
1) My first question - do any of you still have a story collection or have you
integrated it into the 800s? And is this separate collection then strictly for
short stories?
2) My 800s contained a bunch of collections of short stories dating from the
40s-80s, some claiming to contain "contemporary fiction" - which it of course can't
be at this point. My instinct is to throw these and buy newer short stories. Is
this right?
3)Last question - Are there any "must have" classics that I should buy newer
editions of for this section - example - short stories by Twain, Holmes, etc.?
Thank you for your help - it is pretty much like recreating the whole collection
and making sure I don't weed anything valuable/necessary in the process!
